We have reduced support for legacy browsers.

What does this mean for me? You will always be able to play your favorite games on Kongregate. However, certain site features may suddenly stop working and leave you with a severely degraded experience.

What should I do? We strongly urge all our users to upgrade to modern browsers for a better experience and improved security.

PGGC #3: Theme selection

This is the theme selection thread for the third edition of the PGGC (procedurally generated graphics contest).
The main idea is to create an application which procedurally (with a semi-random algorithm) builds an image or scene (static or animated) which fits the selected theme.
You can read the whole set of rules [here](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/4-game-programming/topics/244475-pggc-1-forest).
Please suggest themes; voting will start in a couple of days.

**Suggested themes:**
Aliens
Eldricht creatures
Functional Circuits
Hairstyles for Gaga
Internal Electronics / Microchips
Island
Moon
Mountain range
Planet
Plants
Rivers
Skeletons
Sky
Solar system
Thunderstorm

I might have a go at this one. I’ve followed it so far and it’s really interesting. Plus, the themes and art are always very practical for use as backgrounds in games, so being able to make randomly generated art like this is a useful skill to have.
Theme ideas:
The moon (Like planet but more specific)
Microchips/Internal electronics (Always makes for interesting abstract art)
Thunderstorm

Internal Electronics / Microchips
Functional Circuits
And a downvote for Mountain Ranges. The [diamond-square algorithim](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond-square_algorithm) is retardedly simplistic and produces amazing results. It’s still being used today for various procedural landscape generation needs.

The next GiTD starts on the 27th. I’d like this to end before that.
It’ll start in half a day or so.
